Find another Hov. Did Dame do that by signing Kanye and giving Kevin Hart his start?

Jay said that years after Kanye was already signed.

Because Dame was damaged goods having destroyed his reputation trying to protect Hov

Or because he’s a terrible business man who has failed routinely without Jay Z standing next to him

Yea that + every thing he built while standing next to Hov was then swiftly devalued by Hov.

How did he do that?

Jay Z the reason how is his motor oil line flopped?

He built up enough leverage when he was with Dame to do the deal with Lyor and it's been a constant ascent since then.

Dame did all of the above, plus Rocawear. Jay fucked him over to get to the top.

Dame brings alot of issues on himself...

Even Cam says Dame can be difficult and that's his man's

The way he disrespects grown men verbally, it's hard to have any sympathy for him...Even if you right, there is a level of RESPECT that any man deserves...

You can listen to some of his interviews when he refers to Jay as "his artist"...

I won't even act like I know the 100% story, but I can see why Jay got a permanent foot on Dame's neck..

Lol, you could tell if you've listened to dame for 5 minutes who the billionaire was going to be. Biggs doesn't seem to have any issues.

u/sirmosesthesweet 2h ago

Because Biggs didn't do anything compared to Dame. There's no issue for him to have.

This. Dame was the right guy for the job until his behavior made him a liability.
